The programme is recorded in the current tape speed mode. To change the tape
speed, press SP/LP before you complete the setting in step 9.
When you are recording a programme in the SP mode and the remaining tape
becomes shorter than the recording time, the tape speed is automatically changed
to the LP mode. Note that some interference will appear on the picture at the point
the tape speed is changed. If you want to keep the same tape speed, set AUTO
LONG PLAY to OFF in the OPTIONS-1 menu (page 72).
To check, change, or cancel the programme setting, see Checking/changing/
cancelling timer settings (page 64).
Notes
If eight programmes have already been set using the ShowView system* or the
TIMER menu, FULL appears in the display window for about five seconds.
The indicator flashes in the display window when you complete the setting in
step 9 with no tape inserted.
If you set the clock using the Auto Clock Set function* and AUTO ADJUST is set
to ON, the clock will adjust itself to the incoming time signal regardless of
adjustments made with the Dial Timer. Be sure you have set the Auto Clock Set
correctly.
The station name* may not appear if the VCR does not receive station name
information signals.
